Equality is a class where students can speak about their own experiences with race, gender, and class. We've talked about black history to first, second, and third-class feminism. Throughout this class, I've found it easier and easier to connect the history I've learned in class to my own. Most of what we study has to do with my personal identity and it has made me see what equality really is and what it stands for. In the first term, we discussed the differences between "fake news" and "real news". That lesson reminds me of the AP that I completed for this term because I made up my own news story which is neither real or fake, but a race and class story on a new medical drug. In this AP, I was able to create something I believe in and speak about it as if it was real. I like that the news article we write about has to take place in 100 years because I was more imaginative of what the future may look like, especially with new medications and laws. The Time Capsule is supposed to show what will happen in the future through four different artifacts. My artifacts are the newspaper itself, a book written by someone who took the medication, the pill bottle, and a protest sign.
